Forward Laura Meadows added 13 points and guard Brittney English contributed with 11 points off the bench.
Humber started the game leading 16-10, but a couple three pointers from Gyles pushed the lead for Humber to 25-16 at the end of the first quarter.
The rest of the game continued to play at a fast rate. Guard Leticia Lopez described how her team kept up the pace.

Fouls were no problem for the Hawks.
“I feel like everyone was engaged, even when everything was going bad with the refs,” Lopez said.
Humber’s gap with Redeemer never fell below 15 points in the second half as they held off a shorthanded Royals squad.
Redeemer only had one bench player as several players are dealing with injuries.
“We’re missing our captains today, both with concussions,” said Royals head coach Jesse VanHouwelingen before the game.
Sharma, however, didn’t think a deeper bench gave Humber an advantage over Redeemer. It was more about the way Humber played, he said
“It’s unfortunate for (Redeemer) and we all go through those things, but our advantage is playing the way we play and playing how we practice,” Sharma said.
On the other hand, Lopez said the opponent’s short bench was definitely an advantage.
“Our team is pretty deep, so we can rotate more players,” Lopez said.
The 16-2 Hawks will be back at Humber this Wednesday at 6 p.m as they face the 5-and-13 Mohawk Mountaineers.
